What Causes Red Eyes On Waking In Morning?
I have very red eyes waking in the morning and after a few hours they are less red than before, but still more red(bloodshot) than compared to other people. Now, I don t think allergies are my issue as it is not a seasonal problem, nor do I have sinus problems. My red eyes are worse if I drink alcohol the night before, but still have the problem when I don t drink. I sleep around 7 hours a night, but those nights I sleep longer, still have red eyes. What at the potential causes and solution for my eye redness?
